Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little
transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and elegant aromas
that start with hints of black cherry and plum followed by good aromas of
carob, blueberry, violet, vanilla, toasted wood, tobacco and hints of
caramel. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly
tannic attack and however well balanced by alcohol, good body, intense
flavors. The finish is persistent with pleasing flavors of black cherry,
plum and blueberry.
